GENERAL SAFETY

The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking

equipment on the hob and the lowest part of the range hood must be not less

than 60cm from electric cookers and 70cm from gas or mixed cookers.

If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this

must be adhered to.

Expansion wall plugs are provided to secure the hood to most types of

walls/ceilings. However, a qualified technician must verify suitability of the

materials in accordance with the type of wall/ceiling. The wall/ceiling must be

strong enough to take the weight of the hood. Do not tile, grout or silicone this

appliance to the wall. Surface mounting only.

WARNING! Do not connect the appliance to the mains until the installation is

fully complete.

Before any cleaning or maintenance operation, disconnect hood from the mains

by removing the plug or disconnecting the mains electrical supply.

Always wear work gloves for all installation and maintenance operations.

The appliance is not intended for use by children or persons with impaired

physical, sensorial or mental faculties, or if lacking in experience or knowledge,

unless they are under supervision or have been trained in the use of the

monitored to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

This appliance is designed to be operated by adults. Children should not be

allowed to tamper with the controls or play with the appliance.

Never use the hood without effectively mounted grating!

The hood must NEVER be used as a support surface unless specifically

indicated.

The premises where the appliance is installed must be sufficiently ventilated,

when the kitchen hood is used together with other gas combustion devices or

other fuels.

The ducting system for this appliance must not be connected to any existing

ventilation system which is being used for any other purpose such as discharging

exhaust fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.

The flaming of foods beneath the hood itself is severely prohibited.

The use of exposed flames is detrimental to the filters and may cause a fire risk,

and must therefore be avoided in all circumstances.

Any frying must be done with care in order to make sure that the oil does not

overheat and ignite.

Accessible parts of the hood may became hot when used with cooking

appliance.

With regards to the technical and safety measures to be adopted for fume

discharging it is important to closely follow the regulations provided by the local

authorities.

The hood must be regularly cleaned on both the inside and outside (AT LEAST

ONCE A MONTH).

This must be completed in accordance with the maintenance instructions

provided in this manual). Failure to follow the instructions provided in this user

guide regarding the cleaning of the hood and filters will lead to the risk of fires.

Do not use or leave the hood without the lamp correctly mounted due to the

possible risk of electric shocks.

We will not accept any responsibility for any faults, damage or fires caused to the

appliance as a result of the non-observance of the instructions included in this

manual.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

The mains power supply must correspond to the rating indicated on the plate

situated inside the hood. If provided with a plug connect the hood to a socket in

compliance with current regulations and positioned in an accessible area, after

installation. If it not fitted with a plug (direct mains connection) or if the plug is not

located in an accessible area, after installation, apply a double pole switch in

accordance with standards which assures the complete disconnection of the

mains under conditions relating to over-current category III, in accordance with

installation instructions.

Warning! Before re-connecting the hood circuit to the mains supply and

checking the efficient function, always check that the mains cable is correctly

assembled.

Replacing the power cable

Warning! Power cable replacement must be undertaken by the authorised

service assistance centre or similar qualified person.

AIR VENT

(for the suction versions)

Connect the hood and discharge holes on the walls with a diameter equivalent to

the air outlet (connection flange).

Using the tubes and discharge holes on walls with smaller dimensions will cause

a diminution of the suction performance and a drastic increase in noise.

Any responsibility in the matter is therefore declined.

! Use a duct of the minimum indispensible length.

! Use a duct with as few elbows as possible (maximum elbow angle: 90°).

! Avoid drastic changes in the duct cross-section.

! Use a duct with an as smooth as possible inside.

! The duct must be made of certified material.

! The company declines any responsibility whenever these regulations are

not respected.

FILTERING OR DUCTING ?

! Your cooker hood is ready to be used in suction version.

To use the hood in filtering version the special ACCESSORY KIT must be

installed.

Check on the first pages of this manual if the ACCESSORY KIT is furnished

or must be bought separately.

Note: If furnished, in certain cases, the additional activated carbon filtering

system may be installed on the hood.

Information about the conversion of the hood from suction version to filtering

version is present in this manual.

Ducting version

In this case the fumes are conveyed outside of the building by means of a

special pipe connected with the connection ring located on top of the hood.

Attention! The exhausting pipe is not supplied and must be purchased apart.

Diameter of the exhausting pipe must be equal to that of the connection ring.

In the horizontal runs the exhausting pipe must be slightly slanted (about 10°)

and directed upwards to vent the air easily from the room to the outside.

Attention! If the hood is supplied with active charcoal filter, then it must be

removed.

Filter version

One active charcoal filter is needed for this and can be obtained from your usual

retailer.

The filter removes the grease and smells from the extracted air before sending it

back into the room through the upper outlet grid.

CONTROLS

The hood is fitted with a control panel with aspiration speed selection control and

a light switch to control cooking area lights.

Use the high suction speed in cases of concentrated kitchen vapours. It is

recommended that the cooker hood suction is switched on for 5 minutes prior to

cooking and to leave in operation during cooking and for another 15 minutes

approximately after terminating cooking.

a. ON/OFF lighting

b. OFF motors

c. - d. - e. Minimum suction power (c.), medium (d.), maximum (e.).

MAINTENANCE

ATTENTION! Before performing any maintenance operation, isolate the hood

from the electrical supply by switching off at the connector and removing the

connector fuse.

Or if the appliance has been connected through a plug and socket, then the plug

must be removed from the socket.

Cleaning

The cooker hood should be cleaned regularly (at least with the same frequency

with which you carry out maintenance of the fat filters) internally and externally.

Clean using the cloth dampened with neutral liquid detergent. Do not use

abrasive products. DO NOT USE ALCOHOL!

WARNING: Failure to carry out the basic cleaning recommendations of the

cooker hood and replacement of the filters may cause fire risks.

Therefore, we recommend observing these instructions.

The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage to the motor or any

fire damage linked to inappropriate maintenance or failure to observe the above

safety recommendations.

Maintenance of the anti-grease filters

Traps cooking grease particles.

The grease filter must be cleaned once a month using non aggressive

detergents, either by hand or in the dishwasher, which must be set to a low

temperature and a short cycle. When washed in a dishwasher, the grease filter

may discolour slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity.

To remove the grease filter, pull the spring release handle.

Maintenance of the charcoal filter

It absorbs unpleasant odours caused by cooking.

The saturation of the charcoal filter occurs after more or less prolonged use,

depending on the type of cooking and the regularity of cleaning of the grease

filter. In any case it is necessary to replace the cartridge at least every four

mounths. The charcoal filter may NOT be washed or regenerated.

Note: 2 filters are needed in the models with 2 motors. The system of montage

and dismantling is identical.

Place the carbon filter in order to cover the protection grill for the motor fan

wheel, then turn the central handle P of the filter clockwise.

To dismount the central handle P of the filter turn the handle anti-clockwise.

Replacing lamps

Disconnect the hood from the electricity.

Warning! Prior to touching the light bulbs ensure they are cooled down.

Access the lamp housing area:

remove the lamp holder using a small screwdriver or similar tool as a lever.

Replace the damaged light bulb.

Use only 40W max (E14) olive shape light bulbs.

Then close the lamp housing (snap lock).
